So what is it all about?
Sky Sports offers the excitement of tandem paragliding in Oludeniz, Turkey. Following a brief introduction, you and your pilot will take off from a mountain ridge behind a parachute-like canopy. You’ll launch off the mild slope and go airborne when the wind hits the canopy with only a few steps or a brief run. You’ll have total control over direction and speed in the air, allowing your pilot to fly over peaks, ascend on warm currents of air, and travel long distances.
